Earthy, autumnal colors were the starring colors in the collections presented at New York Fashion Week. While there was a lot of the basics: charcoal gray, black, winter white, and brown, there were some richer colors too, like ruby red and olive green. That’s great news for most of us because most any of these [...]

I must admit that I’m not a fan of real fur unless it’s absolutely warranted for climatic reasons, but others feel differently, including some of the designers that showed their Fall / Winter 2010 collections in New York last week. Vena Cava included a number of fur stoles in her collection, and Peter Som added [...]

Looking at Monique Llhuillier’s Fall / Winter 2010 collection, I kept thinking, “These look like dresses that women wear to the Oscars.” There’s no doubt in my mind that any actress who chooses from this collection will not regret it.

Mark Badgley and James Mischka showed some gorgeous red-carpet-worthy gowns at their Tuesday morning show at Bryant Park. Included were some gorgeous column gowns, and a charming little gold confection made of what looked like a series of connected peony blossoms.
